Are they required to publish financials or do they simple "intend" to publish financials? 

Make sure you get the sales data and ask where this store stands financially in the region. 

I believe they ignored it in large part because they financially benefitted by advocating that STRs are recession proof.  

National savings rates have plummeted, increasingly reliant on credit cards to fill financial gaps.

My goal is to achieve financial freedom in my 20s I want to make $1M/Year, Besides buying 167 properties generating $500/month, how else could I go about it?

It seems like the lender didn't recognize my work overseas and I only had 1 year and half of US working record.

@Renee CossRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

I am trying to see if it makes financial and/or market sense to rehab them and possibly rent them out or just leave them as-is.

Financially, the numbers make sense, but I need to have a proper inspection since this is my first home (and I'm going unrepresented) and the house is built in 1915 with some renovations that were clearly done by the investor selling the property rather than a professional.Question: Although  previous owner has owned the property for 3 years and rented to tenants previously, should I be concerned that the legal zoning is only for SFH?
